For your cherished pussy cat, Aucklands Catz at Ashwood Quality Boarding Cattery offers a delightful and calm family-run boarding cattery.
As lifelong cat lovers, our focus is to have the happiest, healthiest cats and we take great pride in providing individual attention to each of our feline guests.
Under our ownership since 2002, our custom-built, cat only boarding cattery, in the heart of beautiful Shelly Park, Howick, Auckland, has continued a long tradition of offering a safe, serene environment and that cattery guests are well looked after.
Being a semi-communal cattery allows us to provide cats with the space they desire to move around and be themselves. With fabulous climbing frames, and large windows looking over our enclosed garden, we hope to provide a paradise for cats.
Every guest is provided with their own fluffy bed (ones from home are also welcome) and personal sleeping area, so as to ensure that each cat is eating and drinking correctly. Individual spaces allow us to monitor toileting and provide shy cats with plenty of personal space to enjoy their vacation.
